Shattered

The four walls have crumbled down,
Destroyed, left alone like sharp splints of glass
My smile has turned into a frown,
Offer me a ticket to heaven now, I’ll just pass.

I remember the day we took our separate directions,
Since then when you see me, you look away
The tear stain on my cheeks endlessly thickens,
Words choke up in my throat; I don't know what to say.

Invisible, like the frosty air is all that I am to you
Every innocent promise is now left meaningless,
How to fix this mess, I don’t even have a clue
Guess I’ll have get used to this emptiness.

Even after 7 years, time still passes by so slowly,
Just like grains of sand pouring in an hourglass
Realisation floods in; now I happen to be your enemy
Those bitter shrugs rage up on me like burning gas.

Nowadays you won’t even spark a smile at me
You’ve erased the memories of us together,
I want to escape this pain and torment completely,
Part away from this permanent hatred forever.

Special occasions on the calendar are now stained,
There’s not even a single day left to celebrate.
This loneliness is killing me, my heart has been drained,
I’m beginning to accept this as my unfortunate fate.

I still wish every day and night; we go back to the start
Though I know, too much has gone too far...
I never pictured us to end like this, single-handedly apart,
Lost everything we had, merely to this everlasting war...
